Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Very nice and quiet, good visibility, nice gear box and despite the “Slow” remarks, it is as fast as any other cars on the road if they stay within the law. A good car to drive that feels much larger and more expensive that it is. People forget that the TV shows are not too concerned with normal people or normal cars and despite the super cars shown on TV, a speed limit applies to all cars no matter how much they are or fast they go!! Take pleasure knowing that the £30,000 car behind or in front is costing many more times the amount you are spending in your car.
What's it like to park?
Easy. You can now park closer to a wall or another car and know that when you get back, your wing mirror will still be attached or the car parked next to you had to pull out to let the passenger in so no more dings.

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
No.
What's most practical about your car?
Space with the seats down makes this a nice van type car, easy to park and the doors, well, time the opening and walk up, step in, drive off. I dont know why people say they are slow.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Has to be the doors
